This article is for our mother of the bride and groom. We’ve seen many mother of the bride and grooms coming in looking for a great dress for their son’s or daughter’s wedding.
Bridal boutiques offer an exclusive shopping experience that you will not get at big box stores. Although we have many dresses in the store that can be purchased off the rack, most bridal boutiques don’t carry every color, size and design that some mother’s are looking for.
Many of our dresses are sample dresses designed to be tried on and then ordered based on our bridal consultants measuring you for a custom and proper fit. That means the expectation to normally buy a mother’s dress off the rack will be slim.
It then takes 12 to 16 weeks to get that dress in our stores because it is made at the time of the order. One advantage of this is that you have a dress made for you and no one else has worn your dress before you. We do have a mother’s dress gallery that you can take a look at to get a better idea of what’s out there.
So when you or someone you know becomes a mother of the bride or groom, and wants the bridal boutique experience as opposed to picking up a plain Jane dress from a big box store keep in mind that coming in 6 to 8 months before the wedding is a must if you want to be that stunning mother of the bride or groom at the wedding.
